Man Of Steel is getting closer and closer to teaser trailer territory - we're predicting something will hit July at the latest - and if the below descriptions are to be believed, we're set to see some spectacular stuff in it.

But before we get leave Kansas for the Fortress of Spoilertude, we need to issue a couple of words of warning.

The initial source of the footage descriptions was an IMDb board, which are notorious for being full of the sort of truth-bending that would make Lex Luthor blush.

We’ve got the exclusive trailer for independent UK horror The Addicted.

Director Sean J Vincent will be doing the rounds at the oh-so-imminent Cannes Film Festival, so it feels like a good time to take a look at some footage.

As you might have inferred from the title, the film take place at a drug rehab unit: a now defunct facility known as 'The Manor'. Following reports of shady paranormal goings-on taking place there, an aspiring TV journalist heads there with a film crew.

Carrie, Kimberly Pierce's remake of Brian De Palma's classic horror, has confirmed a second piece of major casting, with Julianne Moore signing on to play Carrie's mother, Margaret White.

More than any other medium, film has the power to scare us silly. In the dark of the cinema, the suspense of a slow pan, that shadowy figure at the edge of frame – the shock of a sudden sound-effect, or jittery jump-cut – all come together in delicious, breath-stopping, heartbeat-skipping moments of pure cinematic fear. But forget chainsaws, zombies...
